Linc Hosler was sitting in a packed football stadium when the Flying Eyes appeared and cast their hypnotic power over half the crowd. Thousands of people suddenly began marching zombie-like into the woods where they vanished into a black pit.
Linc used every resource of the Space Research Lab and the National Guard to destroy the Eyes. But nothing could stop them, for they proved immune to bullets and bombs.
In desperation, Linc captured an Eye and found a way to communicate with it through his mind. He learned that radiation was fuel for the creatures' lives. And then they issued their terrible ultimatum: Explode a series of atom bombs to supply them with radiation or they would turn the world's population into mindless robots.
It gave the world two harrowing choices—self-destruction via fallout from the bombs or annihilation via the sinister Flying Eyes....
The Dramatic Life Story Of The Second Most Powerful Man In Washington ROBERT F. KENNEDYAssistant President By Gary Gordon Author of THE RISE AND FALL OF THE JAPANESE EMPIRE
Whatever accomplishments can be attributed to John F. Kennedy, some of the credit must go to his brother Bobby, for, as campaign manager in the last election, the younger Kennedy had a great deal to do with getting his brother nominated and then elected.
Coming into prominence via his work as Chief Counsel to the McClellan Committee, he has proven to be a tough fighter and the possessor of an overwhelming will to win. Now, in his dual role as Attorney General and adviser to the President, he is a power to be reckoned with.
Here is the life story of Robert F. Kennedy, the President's "chief trouble-shooter, crisis smoother and selfless rooter" (Look); the man who is "second only to the President in power and influence" (U.S. News and World Report): the man who may be eyeing the White House for his own future occupancy.
